Chapter 754 A Small Shop with a Sense of History!

After returning to Tianji Pavilion, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang returned to their own rooms and began to practice meditation.

In the dead of night, Luo Chen suddenly felt a strong spiritual power fluctuation. He opened his eyes, walked out of the room, and found Qing Shuang standing outside.

"You felt it too?" Qing Shuang asked in a low voice.

Luo Chen nodded, "This spiritual power fluctuation is extraordinary. Let's go and see."

The two followed the direction of the spiritual power fluctuation and came to a secret room in Tianji Pavilion.

The secret room was full of light, and Zhao Cheng was sitting cross-legged in the center, surrounded by powerful spiritual power.

"Is Senior Zhao breaking through the realm?" Qing Shuang said in surprise.

Luo Chen's eyes flashed with admiration, "Senior Zhao's cultivation is indeed unfathomable."

The two did not disturb him and stood quietly by the side until Zhao Cheng's breakthrough was over.

Zhao Cheng slowly opened his eyes, saw Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, and smiled slightly.

"You two, you're just in time. I just broke through, and I have some experience to share with you."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were delighted and hurried forward to listen.

Zhao Cheng told them about his experience and insights of breakthrough one by one, and Luo Chen and Qing Shuang listened in fascination.

Time passed unknowingly, and when Zhao Cheng finished speaking, the sky was already slightly bright.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang bowed deeply to Zhao Cheng to express their gratitude.

"You two, practice well, there is still a long way to go in the future." Zhao Cheng said earnestly.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang nodded firmly, they knew that their practice path had just begun.

......

A wake up day.

In a blink of an eye, it was the second day.

After Luo Chen and Qing Shuang woke up, they walked out of the Tianji Pavilion and came to the streets of the city to stroll.

The streets of the city today seem to be much more prosperous than yesterday.

Even the number of practitioners walking on the streets is much more than usual.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang strolled in the bustling crowd, and their eyes were often attracted by the dazzling stalls on the roadside.

Qing Shuang became interested in an exquisite dragon-shaped jade carving. She whispered to Luo Chen: "Luo Chen, look at that dragon-shaped jade carving. The carving is really fine."

Luo Chen followed Qing Shuang's gaze and saw that the jade carving exuded a soft luster in the sun. The dragon's body was circling, lifelike, as if it would fly away at any time.

"It's really good. This carving should be from a famous artist." Luo Chen said approvingly.

Qing Shuang's eyes showed a look of love. She walked lightly to the stall and picked up the jade carving to examine it carefully.

The stall owner was an elderly man. When he saw Qing Shuang's interest in the jade carving, he introduced it enthusiastically: "Girl, this jade carving is carved with top-grade Hetian jade. It is not only beautiful, but also has auspicious meanings."

Luo Chen stood aside, watching Qing Shuang talking to the old man, and a trace of warmth rose in his heart.

He knew that although Qingshuang seemed indifferent on weekdays, she was very delicate in her heart and always had an unspeakable love for beautiful things.

"Luochen, what do you think?" Qingshuang turned around and asked Luochen's opinion.

Luochen smiled slightly, "If you like it, then buy it. It's rare to meet something you like, so don't hesitate."

Qingshuang nodded and asked the old man about the price.

After some bargaining, Qingshuang finally bought the jade carving at a reasonable price.

She carefully put the jade carving away, with a satisfied smile on her face.

The two continued to stroll on the street, and Luochen suddenly noticed that a lot of people gathered in front of a store, as if they were watching something.

"Qingshuang, it seems very lively over there, let's go over and take a look." Luochen suggested.

Qingshuang readily agreed, and the two squeezed through the crowd and came to the front of the store.

I saw rows of exquisite magic tools in the window of the store, each of which exuded a faint spiritual power fluctuation.

"These magic tools look extraordinary." Luochen whispered.

Qingshuang's eyes were also attracted by these magic weapons. She asked Luochen softly: "Should we go in and take a look?"

Luochen nodded, and the two walked into the shop.

The owner of the shop was a middle-aged man. When he saw Luochen and Qingshuang coming in, he greeted them warmly.

"Hello, two guests. These magic weapons were selected and refined by me personally. Each one has its own unique features." The shop owner introduced proudly.

Under the guidance of the shop owner, Luochen and Qingshuang looked at these magic weapons one by one.

Qingshuang became interested in a small amulet. She picked up the amulet and felt the gentle spiritual power contained in it.

"This amulet seems to enhance defense." Qingshuang said to Luochen.

Luochen nodded, "Indeed, the spiritual power fluctuation of this amulet is very stable. It should be a good choice."

Seeing that Qingshuang was interested in the amulet, the shop owner began to introduce the origin and efficacy of the amulet in detail.

Luochen and Qingshuang listened and had a better understanding of the amulet in their hearts.

Finally, Qingshuang decided to buy the amulet.

She paid the money and carefully hung the amulet around her waist.

After thanking the shop owner, the two left the shop.

"With this amulet, we can have more protection when we encounter danger in the future." Qingshuang said with satisfaction.

Luochen smiled and responded: "Yes, the road of cultivation is full of unknowns, and it is always good to be more prepared."

The two continued to wander around the city, and unknowingly came to a teahouse.

A string of wind chimes hangs at the door of the teahouse, swaying gently in the wind, making a sweet sound.

"Luochen, let's go in and sit down, have a cup of tea and take a rest." Qingshuang suggested.

Luo Chen readily agreed, and the two of them walked into the teahouse.

The teahouse is very elegantly decorated, and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of tea.

They found a seat by the window and ordered a pot of good spiritual tea.

The tea was served quickly, and the two chatted while sipping the tea.

Luo Chen suddenly thought of something and said to Qingshuang: "Qingshuang, have you ever thought about why we are here?"

Qingshuang was stunned for a moment, and then replied softly: "Maybe, this is fate."

Luo Chen nodded, "Maybe, but I think all of this is the result of our own choices. We chose to leave our hometown and embark on this path of cultivation."

Qingshuang was silent for a while, and then said: "You are right, it is our own choice, but no matter what, I am very happy to have you by my side."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, and a warm current surged in his heart.

He knows that no matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as they can support each other, nothing is impossible.

The two spent a peaceful afternoon in the teahouse until the sun set before they got up and left.

On the way back to Tianji Pavilion, both Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt an unprecedented sense of calm and satisfaction.

"Tomorrow, we will start a new practice." Luo Chen said softly.

Qingshuang nodded, "Yes, every day is a new beginning."

As night falls, the lights in Tianji Pavilion are brightly lit.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang returned to their rooms and began their night practice.

Surrounded by spiritual power, their souls were purified and their cultivation levels were steadily improved.

In another part of Tianji Pavilion, Zhao Cheng was meditating with his eyes closed, a faint smile appearing on his face.

He knew that Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were both rare cultivation geniuses, and given time, they would definitely be able to go further on the path of cultivation.

It was late at night, and the entire Tianji Pavilion was immersed in silence.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang's practice continues, and their hearts are filled with longing and expectations for the future.

And in this quiet night, their path of cultivation is quietly extending forward.

...

In the blink of an eye, another day has passed.

After Luo Chen and Qing Shuang left Tianji Pavilion, they walked towards a famous breakfast shop on the street of the city.

I heard that the breakfast at this shop is quite delicious.

Luochen and Qingshuang walked into the breakfast shop. The shop was full of people and the aroma was fragrant.

They found a seat in a corner and sat down. Qingshuang looked around curiously, while Luo Chen ordered two signature breakfasts from the waiter.

"I heard that the soy milk fried dough sticks here are particularly famous, as well as the steamed dumplings, which have thin skin and lots of fillings and are delicious." Luo Chen said to Qing Shuang with a smile.

Qingshuang nodded, a trace of expectation flashing in his eyes, "I haven't eaten much before, but I finally have a chance to try it today."

After a while, the waiter came over with steaming breakfast.

Luochen picked up a fried dough stick and took a bite. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, leaving a fragrant aroma in his mouth.

Qingshuang carefully picked up a steamed dumpling and gently took a small bite. The soup inside flowed out, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"It's so delicious!" Qingshuang couldn't help but praise.

Seeing Qing Shuang's satisfied look, Luo Chen felt very happy.

They chatted while eating, discussing future plans and insights into spiritual practice.

"Luochen, what do you think is the ultimate goal of our practice?" Qingshuang suddenly asked.

Luo Chen put down the chopsticks in his hand, pondered for a while, and replied: "I think the ultimate goal of practice is not only to pursue power, but also to achieve inner peace and understanding of the world."

Qingshuang nodded thoughtfully, "You are right, power is just a means, the real purpose is to better understand yourself and the world."

The two smiled at each other and continued to enjoy this rare peaceful breakfast time.

After breakfast, they decided to take a short walk around the city.

In this way, it will be easier to eat!

But before he had gone far, Luo Chen saw a large number of practitioners, all of them seemed to be running quickly in a certain direction.

It seems that I am afraid that I will miss something if I am slow.

Luo Chen stopped a person out of curiosity.

"Excuse me, what happened? Why are so many people in a hurry?" Luo Chen asked politely.

The practitioner who was stopped was a middle-aged man. He was breathing heavily and seemed a little anxious: "Oh, don't you know? Today is the day of the city's auction. I heard that there are several very precious treasures to be auctioned. , so everyone is rushing to go.”

When Qingshuang heard the news, a trace of curiosity flashed in her eyes: "Auction? It sounds interesting. Luo Chen, should we go and have a look too?"

Luo Chen nodded and agreed with Qingshuang's suggestion: "Okay, maybe we can find treasures that are beneficial to our practice."

The two of them followed the flow of people and walked towards the auction.

The auction venue was located in a majestic building in the center of the city. Several guards in gorgeous costumes stood at the door, checking the identity and invitations of the entrants.

Although Luo Chen and Qing Shuang did not have invitation letters, due to their cultivation and temperament, the guards did not hesitate and let them go.

After entering the venue, they found that it was already full of people and the atmosphere was very lively.

The host of the auction was a graceful middle-aged man. He stood on the stage and introduced the items to be auctioned in a loud voice: "Dear guests, today we will bring you a series of rare treasures. Each one is carefully selected by us. I believe you will not be disappointed."

As the host introduced, the treasures were presented to the crowd.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang were also attracted by some of the treasures, such as a magic bead that can enhance spiritual power perception and an ancient book that records high-level cultivation methods.

In the end, they decided to bid for the ancient book.

After several rounds of fierce bidding, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang successfully bid for the ancient book at a reasonable price.

They were full of expectations and wanted to study this ancient book as soon as possible to see if it could bring new inspiration to their practice.

After the auction, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang left the venue, discussing the contents of the ancient book as they walked.

Qing Shuang suddenly stopped and looked at a small shop not far away.

"Luo Chen, look over there, that shop seems a little unusual." Qing Shuang pointed at the shop sign and said.

Luo Chen followed Qing Shuang's gaze and saw that the shop sign read "Antiques and Wonders". There were some old items in the shop window, which looked quite historical.

"Let's go over and take a look." Luo Chen suggested.

The two walked into the antique shop, which was decorated in an antique style and filled the air with a faint sandalwood scent.

The owner was a white-haired old man who was sitting behind the counter, concentrating on wiping an antique bronze incense burner.

"Welcome, two guests." The old man raised his head and greeted him in a gentle voice.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang nodded to the old man and began to browse in the store.

They found that every item here seemed to contain some mysterious power, which made people want to find out.

Qing Shuang picked up a peculiarly shaped jade pendant, which was engraved with some symbols she had never seen before.

She asked the old man curiously: "Old man, is there anything special about this jade pendant?"

The old man smiled slightly, put down the incense burner in his hand, and slowly said: "This jade pendant is said to be left by a powerful person in ancient times. It can help practitioners concentrate more during meditation, and may even gain some enlightenment in dreams."

After hearing this, Luo Chen's eyes flashed with interest: "This is really a rare treasure, I wonder how much it costs?"

The old man pondered for a moment and quoted a price.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang discussed it and decided to buy the jade pendant.
